Hello again. My question is to those familiar with Dancer2 (and Template Toolkit.) I'm new to these, as I am considering them as migration tools from CGI. I've been looking for information on how are classic form elements (e.g., radio groups, pull-down menus, check boxes, etc.) implemented. I have been unsuccessful in finding any examples. I am particularly interested in those that are dynamically populated with options from a database, a hash, or some other data structure. For example, using CGI one would write: 
 my $menu = popup_menu(-name=>'menu_name',
                         -values=>['eenie','meenie','minie'],
                         -default=>['meenie','minie'],
       -labels=>\%labels,
       -attributes=>\%attributes);

print $menu;

The content of the variable $menu could also then be used to fill a template "on-the-fly". Anyway, any suggestions or references to where I could glean such info would be greatly appreciated.
